  1. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Don't bother, it's a reck! Wait there is plenty of good bikes around for 1300 squid. just hold on, and never buy anything without having a good look at it first! Or even a ride on it. Photos can make a reck look pretty good. We've all got engine detailer and tyre shine in our garage!
  2. Just a quick Massive thanks to the club for putting todays trial on. Even though the ground was extremely Hard and Icey, and heavy snow, It was a fantastic trial. And very much enjoyed. Also a massive thanks to the Observers for braving the snow and cold. Cheers Chris Bancroft
  3. I hated the 2010 Gassers, but that it superb. Certainly will knacker the aftermarket sales of parts. It has on it what you'd upgrade to. Definatly not a bike for the likes of us that can't afford to fix the cheapest of items, never mind S3 pipe as standard etc. But yeah i agree GasGas really have gone over and above on that one. Raga Rep - Probably have S3 cylinder head.
  4. I have an 04 Raga, Although my clutch works fine, I'd like to lighten it off. Has anybody with a 03 - 06 Pro simply put a newer thinner 06 onwards spring in. If so what was it like. Cheers
  5. Thats Fantastic!!! Don't suppose it will be on TV will it. I really think the SPEA indoor should take on themed sections like that.
  6. Barca indoor it says on home page. Either way dibs is 3rd. Excellent
  7. OMG, why did i come back in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fantastic, Bloody Fantastic. Come on Dibs. Excellent!
  8. Your one of those people who tell how the end of the film goes. I wish i hadn't opened this thred now, Can you put a warning on the title, if people want to wait and watch it tonight. But still Come On Dibs Lad.
  9. Trials uk sell them fella. www.trialsuk.co.uk/htm/parts_&_accessories_accessories.htm
  10. Why the back spindle then, and not the bikes furthest rear point?

    Milky Oil?

    Is it a new Shaft? If not you may need to replace that too. You'll see on the shaft the obvious shiny wear marks. I've just replaced mine in a 04 Raga, Cause it was badly worn.

    Milky Oil?

    SOunds like the seal has gone on the water pump shaft. Or if new parts are they fitted 100%
  13. How the **** does he do half of that! Top riding, defo one to watch for 2010 on the 2T.
  14. I very nearly did, but my lass got me the Gasgas uk team sticker set. But i think the Monster ones will look cock on with white plastics. If you want a set i know Trials uk have a set in stock, Give them a bell.

    'Give Away'

    Bloody well said Andy, Why are sandifords so worried bout their name been mentioned, Hang on has anybody actually mentioned their name? I've seen a link to someone using their name, nowt other than that. But yeah i'd appreciate the fact that someone was pointing out that there was a dodgy deal. Why couldn't Sandifords simply say 'We nothing of this please be aware of this seller' Nowt like helping out the Trials community is there!
  16. Your correct it was TT i apologise, I'm all for new technology, but in the same way am bothered about it. Already Technology and robots are puuting us all out of jobs. and due to this are loosing skills, or the only skills being developed are I.T skills to fix the things. I can't say electric power thrills me, but my main point i suppose im saying is, If we carry on prooving electric power can phsyically do what IC can do, then is the goverment not going to turn around and say, 'right well there is no difference in performance between these two machines, Electric has very little green peace effect but IC is burning a hole in our atomosphere blablabla, Ban all IC, we don't need them anymore as Electric can replace it' Then before you know it, IC sport is no more, no more lovely smell, no more lovely noise etc. They did it with a massive percentage of 2 strokes, correct me if im wrong but there is no or very few 2 strokes on the road, certainly Rs's or RGV's etc and did the 250's and 125's not get banned from the TT and GP? The age of Kids in Trials has just been dropped from 6 to 4, aslong as they are on an electric bike????? Whats the point in that, why not 50's or if they want less power, restricted 50's. Why only electric?
  17. Is it just me, or is anybody bothered or even scared that the internal combustion engine, That perfect sound and smell of an engine is pretty rapidly disappearing. I've just seen on another web site that an 8 year old has won his local championship on a very small electric osset, beating adults on petrol bikes. Also in this years Manx GP electric powered bikes lapped at 98MPH. Both of these pretty much prooving that electric power can do what petrol power can. Not being any form of green peace bod or owt, My concern is that either in my era (being 27) or atleast my Kids ( to be) era, That lovely sound and smell that i think actually drives the adrenalin buzz we get will be gone. And also i cannot see how they can be ridden effectivily, As we all know we ride bikes by the sound of the engine, We know when to change gear, when to dump the clutch etc etc by the noise of the engine. how do you do all that with no noise? We all do it, When waiting at section we blip the engine, most may do it for other reasons but we all do it because we just love the sound our bikes give off. Can you imagine sat at a section waiting in the future and reving your engine, and all you get is an electric whering noise, how Boring will that be! Anyway Ban all electric bikes i say!
  18. Hiya give trials uk a ring. If they aint got them in stock they'll get them to you pretty quick. Top lads. http://www.trialsuk.co.uk/
  19. I think Trials UK (site Sponsor) may have some plastics in stock, If not they'll be able to get you some.
  20. It has an anti bubble pump running off the carb vac, so dosen't need a breather. I think the design ideas and thinking behind it are fantastic. Certainly hasn't been thought of before. Bike looks fantastic though, I'll certainly be going to test ride one. I assume there will be a 4T? Lets see if we'll see one in the top 3 of world rounds. Shame there wasn't one running at the scott, that'll have answered any questions on mud getting places etc.
  21. I'd like to hear what combo's of jetting and needle height people have tried in there 04 raga's. Also how did the bike feel. Bike is completely standard, no flywheel weight etc. Good to hear peoples opinions.
  22. Trials uk i think have one in stock.
  23. I'd like to open this question to debate. Whats the optimum position for the levers to be in and why? Mine are set to approx 20 degrees down. Because they feel comfy, but are they at the best position?
  24. Does anybody know where the chepest place to buy this is. So far i'm getting prices ranging from 19 - 25!!! I know it's fantastic stuff, but with times being hard en all, spending 25 squid has to be heavily justified.
  25. Im not certain to the actual rules. But im 99% sure you can't alter a section, if the landscape becomes unlodged. That was bang out of order and should not have been allowed. I always ask people if they want the section tarmacin, when i catch them kicking rocks out of the way etc! Brushing a rock for grip fair enough, but moving stuff no way!
